disagree  Daryo: yes and no - that's a general concept - concepts don't get expressed in mm. It's got to fit in with the whole sentence.

[circuit breaker having] a contact separation [in all poles] not less than 3 mm
[прекидач] са раздвајањем контактата [на свим половима] од најмање 3мм


Explanation:

"contact separation [in all poles] not less than 3 mm"

is a characteristic of the circuit breaker, the distance between separated contacts when in OPEN position, measured in mm, NOT the abstract concept of "separating contacts mechanically"

Abstract concepts don't get expressed in mm. Distances [here separating 2 contacts] get expressed in mm.
